“Do not trust anybody but yourself. If people want to help you, fine. P...” — Art Alexakis Quote

“Do not trust anybody but yourself. If people want to help you, fine. Put it on paper and understand exactly what every word says.”

“I saw Cheap Trick play 'In Color,' and it was awesome.”

“I loved hard-rock bands, and I loved songwriters who told stories.”

“Words have power, and if you are going to use your words negatively, then that is exactly what is going to happen in your life.”

“I'm old fashioned. I'm not one of these young guys who think they are so smart that they can prescribe what humanity ought to do. Humanity never learns any lessons. Prescriptions don't matter. We already know exactly what to do. We just don't do it.”

“But one of the satisfying things about performing a play is you know for that piece of time exactly what you're going to be doing. Your life has a physical pattern. There's something about the odd, repetitious nature of it that I find hugely relaxing. All the problems of life are taken care of for that bit of time.”
